Pretend

Twenty four - useless bet

Y/n's pov

It's 11 pm
I'm getting ready to sleep, but as I move my covers to get on the bed
a small piece of parchment slips from under the door, inside the room,  and drifts towards my hands.

Meet me at my dorm
-yhbf

I read

Yhbf? Your h-?? boyfriend ?

YOUR HANDSOME BOYFRIEND !

I roll my eyes, why does he need me?

He's so full on himself huh, but he ain't lying

I look at my two roommates and they are sleeping like rocks.

I quickly put on a hoodie since I'm still in my pjs and my cute slippers

I don't really care if Tom sees me in my pyjama pants and slippers

I slowly open the door and close it behind me, once I got in front of his room I knocked and entered even without him answering

At least I knocked

He's sitting on the bed with his back on it's headboard

'Uhm, you needed me?' I ask closing carefully the door

'Yeah have a sit' he gestured the end of his bed

I shyly walk towards the bed and sat facing him

'What's so urgent that you couldn't tell me tomorrow morning?' I ask yawning

'It's about my parents' he announces looking at me emotionless

'What happened? Are they alright??' I ask concerned

'Yes, they told me that they have accepted an offer to work with your parents'

'Oh, thats cool? I guess?' I ask not knowing what to say or why did he told me

'It means that they will be out of town for a few months too' he continues

'Oh I didn't think of that'

I'm too sleepy to think lucidly

'And both our parents made an agreement, without asking our opinion of course'

I slightly tilt my head like it would help me listen better lmao

'And what does it consist of?'

'Basically, to prevent that we spend summer break alone.. they want one of us to stay at the others Manor..' he continues

'WHAT?' I'm confused

'They- what.. they trust us?' I stupidly ask

'What do you mean?' He's the one confused now

'Nothing. But who stays at whose Manor?'

'They told me that we have to decide, we still have time though.. around three months' he states
